Six-Sided Bamboo Table

The six-sided shape of this early 20th-century table from southern China is unusual for Qing-dynasty furniture. Referencing the simpler designs popular in previous eras, this side table was constructed with a frame of bent bamboo and a crushed bamboo top surface. Creating furniture from bamboo is a traditional Chinese art form in itself, requiring carpenters with very specific skills, talents, and training.
